Welcome to Danny
Brooks' Soulsville! –
Hello and welcome to my site. Please take the time to surf my
videos
and
discography,
which includes my latest release
Live At The Palais
Royale/Soulsville III. I grew up
listening to Hank Williams and Taj Mahal when older brother
Greg turned me onto Solomon Burke, Joe Tex, and Bobby Blue Bland,
and that laid the bedrock for my writing and vocal styling.
CBCRadio: Ringo Starr once said, that “you’ve gotta pay your dues
if you wanna sing the blues”, then Danny Brooks has enough
life experience to share with a dozen fledgling performers. But
more importantly, he has uncommon chops as a musician and
songwriter. Anyone who cares at all about music - and I mean
REAL music that comes from the soul - should make themselves
aware of Brooks winning blend of blues, R&B, and Stax".

DANNY BROOKS - MIRACLES FOR BREAKFAST -
AVAILABLE! -
John Wiley&Sons
The book is equal parts biographical, inspirational.
motivational with a look at the music industry and overcoming
addictions. It is a heartwarming story that mixes humor to
offset heavy subject matter and shows that the underdog can
overcome and become a winner from the most difficult of
circumstances. It is Brooks' belief that no matter who you are,
what you've done, how far down you've sunk and how bad you may
feel about the present, there is absolutely nothing that God and
you can't work out together and get back on a winning, happy and
peaceful track. You may
purchase
your personally autographed copy here. Watch for upcoming book signings in your area. |

'Listening to Danny
Brooks is like driving out of Memphis, TN on a sunny Saturday morning
into the Mississippi Delta listening to WDIA. It's one of those
things where time stands still. A dash of Eddie Hinton, Solomon
Burke, Rev. James Cleveland and Howlin' Wolf are all ingredients
in Danny's soulful musical stew'. states Greg
Martin of the Kentucky Headhunters. Maybe Greg Quill, noted musician
and arts writer for the Toronto Star, sums it up the best: 'This
is Roots music of great distinction.' Be sure to
check Danny's
live appearances and don't
forget to leave your message in his
guestbook.
